Faculty Scavenger Hunt

At the Spring 2007 Vanderbilt Faculty Dinner, this "scavenger hunt" was used to break the ice between Christian faculty meeting for the first time. At first, the staff and faculty organizing the dinner were not sure that faculty would enjoy such a "childish" activity, but the faculty at the dinner had a wonderful time getting to know each other better.

The rules are simple. Each person is given a copy of the form, and their task is to find as many people who fit the categories as possible. It's an excellent way to find out what you have in common with each other or what interesting experiences someone else has had. It can also be easily modified for your university.

Vanderbilt University Faculty Dinner
In Spring 2007, InterVarsity staff gathered together Christian faculty for a simple dinner to break the ice between Christian faculty on campus, and it immediately contributed to greater community and friendship among Christians on faculty.

Faculty Breakfast at Harvard
Another simple idea for gathering Christian faculty: a breakfast to welcome new faculty at the beginning of your university's new academic year.

The Story of Faculty Coffees at Bradley
At Bradley University, Christian faculty and their spouses gather for coffee once per semester, leading to stronger relationships and deeper conversations about following Christ in a university context.
